How I Apsaalooke (How do you?) I have always refused to go all grandmother-willow- tree when there is a need for action, I dont giggle behind my hand when people slip and fall, I dig in my shiny bag for my wallet and stride forward to pay my respect with a grin and wink. When I see a teen-aged boy working on his bustle, I cry a little and praise his mother. When my daughter and I pick berries, we sing. I greet the sunrise and drink water with reverence, but I dont wear feathers or braids, my stylist is mexican and works with my curls. I show my grandmother deference, and giggle with her when something is silly; I ask her questions-- not about how things were done in the old way but how she coped with getting dinner for her kids after a long day in heels & hose at the office-- she was a master at the crockpot.
